A Dusty Christmas!

Hello there! I'm back today with a bit of Dusty Attic Christmas cheer.

Santa came early to my house and delivered a box of Dusty Attic goodies so I just had to use them straight away. I followed the gorgeous December sketch:

Here's what I created:

I've used a mix of new and older chippies here. I always love the new releases but still go back to older designs as well.

I love the new word packs. I used a combination of letters, a word from a new word pack and numbers to make my title. I coated the letters and numbers with Dusty in Colour paints and the word with Beck BT's Tinby Designs Metallic Melts.

Isn't the picture my daughter drew for my son amazing?

I layered the chippies up in places. Here I have an Elegant Swirl under a Music stave under a Word Disk. I love that you can see through some of these layers and see the chippies underneath. As before, I have coated them with different Dusty in Colour paints and gold Metallic Melts.

I painted all the notes on the music stave and scattered stars across the page.

The Dusty Attic products I used are:

Elegant Swirl # 13 DA1133

Word Disks #1 DA1195

Music DA0351

Word Pack #7 DA1165

Bookman ABC Set DA0666

mini Number Set DA0863

mini Him & Her DA1064

Stars #3 DA1153

mini Stars DA1040

Dusty in Colour Paints - Denim, Faded Denim, Alabaster and Soot.

Don't forget you can now buy Dusty Attic products online here. (Be warned - it's dangerous looking at this site - there are so many amazing products on here!)

I hope you take some wonderful Christmas shots this year and have just as much fun scrapping them as you did enjoying the Christmas moments.

Wonderful use of the chippies Heather, they all look fab together. I especially like the font of the surprise word and the big stars. A very thoughtful gift from your daughter; it's wonderful to read about kids creating for each other :D

About Me

I've been scrapping now for about 13 years, since a friend dragged me along to a Creative Memories party. I fitted in scrapping when I could until the last couple of years when I've been able to devote more time to it. I'm loving the amazing journey this craft has taken me on. I've met so many wonderful people, pushed myself out of my comfort zone and have got to travel and teach. Woohoo!
